    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ that is the jist of it. Pods can steal bases, but not run the bases very well.
  2. "Pick it up!! Now, I wanted to just say that some of you are sucking ass right now, but since I'm loyal to those of you that helped us beat up on the Royals and the Tigers in the past, theres nothing you can do wrong to make me wanna try something new!"
  3. "I think that Buddy Bell and the staff of KC are using the water fountains out in the outfield concourse to steal and relay signs about my pitches!!"

    Pods defense in the outfield to me is about on par with Everetts defense in centerfield a couple years ago. Believe me, that ain't no compliment.

    Ummmmmm no? Paul's career post-Beatles has been nothing short of remarkable. Let me know when he makes some Ringo-esque Pizza Hut commercials.
  7. Ya but we've beaten up on an Indians team alot earlier this season. This current Cleveland team is a serious threat. They've gotten alot of things together, and IMO I wouldn't even consider those first 13 games against them to be even the same caliber of team.

    OK, edited out, Heads is da boss, so my remarks will stop.

    Scoring 9 runs does nothing at all if you leave a pitcher out there with ZERO. And as Garcia showed AGAIN tonight, when you have nothing out there, it doesn't matter how many runs your offense gives you.
  10. And here you go!
  11. Ya for real...just think before the digits hit the keyboard folks.

    QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 11:42 PM) Ozzie started using his pitchers way too long the first week after the ASB, when he left Garcia in the game until the 9th inning against the Tigers in a game that he had thrown a ton of pitches and had nothing left. Since then, he's been very hesistant to trust the bullpen. Very overlooked fact. FACT. Our starters have ALL been left out there way too long, and as we come down the stretch, the gas tanks are empty...
  13. QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 11:40 PM) Ok...calm down...have some dip. It'll be ok. Do we have a suicide hotline thread here @ soxtalk? SS2K5 sits there and racks up posts by trying to tell people life is still worth living? Have some dip...that a quote from a George Carlin standup? For some reason that stands out to me.

    Thats fine JimH...but so help me god if I hear that Hermansons back is hurting now after the game, blah blah blah...then DON'T f***ING PITCH HIM. Jenks would have been just fine against these assclowns, even after throwing 2 innings last night. And its not Ozzies fault that our top 4 have been pitching like ass the last 2 months? Well, thats questionable, these guys have been throwing alot of innings this year.
  15. Ya I found that last year. The Jim Rome clip from Fox is great, as is the one where he plays all 4 Fox personalities.
  16. Was IMO a VERY hastily made decision to give him the extension, one we may dread later on..he just doesn't impress me, but hey what do I know.

    Saw this preview a while back, and the film kinda slipped my mind. Cheadle certainly blew up with Hotel Rwanda, etc...but IMO deservedly so. I'll have to go check it out sometime soon.
  18. QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 02:45 AM) Heh with how you guys looked yesterday and adding in the fact that Walker might be out for the rest of the season. You would almost have to be lucky to get 8-8. Well, as much as I hate to say it because it was Detroit, the dome factor didn't help. In case you aren't aware of it, Favre + Dome = s***tastic results. But agreed, this team is in a heap of a mess right now.
  19. As a Packers fan(yeah, yeah...don't start), I'm gonna go ahead and write this season off as the farewell tour of Brett, be content with 8-8 or so, and hope like hell that Aaron Rodgers turns out to be some kind of hellacious prodigy under Favre. This team just doesn't have 'it' anymore. And with Walker now in doubt, well I'll say that I'm glad I at least get to watch Spurrier and South Carolina...
  20. Ya I was preparing my rant, but then I figured.."Surely Qwert is being sarcastic.."
  21. Happy Birthday, you Aussie bastid.
  22. QUOTE(hi8is @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 08:40 PM) yeah, i forsee a possible DL trip "Orlando Hernandez was placed on the 15-day DL today retroactive to September 7th, due to a bruised ego." Well I can dream.
  23. Enough of the bulls*** Ozzie. How about we worry less about how Duque's 'feelings' and more about the AL Central title....you know, the one that we currently are pissing away to a better Cleveland team. Duque has been scrap for a while now, and BMac gives us a BETTER OPPORTUNITY to win the game. We don't need a manager to contribute to the chokejob right now Oz, make the right decision based on the TEAM needs. Jesus man...
  24. sonofab****. Because we can't kick a goddamn extra point, we lose on the road to the #9 team in the nation, Georgia, 17-15. Nothing else I can say. We are playing tons of freshman and true sophomores. Chalk year 1 up under Spurrier as the learning year.

    the Foozer show was better than i expected honestly. I mean, Grohl and the Foo didn't disappoint, and gave the performance that I would always want from them. BUt the big surprise was Weezer. I've long heard that those guys hate touring, and aren't exactly a great live show. I'll have to disagree 100%. Rivers and the guys put on a great show, playing lots of the stuff that most of us who were into teh Blue Album and Pinkerton remember. to Rivers and the boys, I was very pleasantly surprised.
